What is the difference between a migration lawyer and a migration agent?
Both can assist with visa applications, so what sets them apart?
Well, consider the difference between a doctor and a nurse. While both play essential roles in healthcare, their qualifications, expertise, and scope of practice differ significantly. The same applies to migration lawyers and migration agents.
Migration lawyers undergo four years of legal education, followed by at least five years of practice before they can practice without restrictions in the Australian Capital Territory. In contrast, migration agents complete their qualifications in one year, pass a capstone test, and can begin practising without restrictions immediately.
移民律師和移民代理有什麼不同?
兩者都可以協助提交簽證申請,那麼差別在哪裡?
這就像醫生與護士的區別。雖然兩者在醫療領域都扮演著重要角色,但他們的資格、專業知識和職責範圍卻有所不同。同樣的道理也適用於移民律師與移民代理。
移民律師需完成四年的法律教育,隨後至少再經過五年的執業經驗,才能在澳大利亞首都領地無限制地執業。相比之下,移民代理只需完成一年的相關資格課程並通過最終考試,即可立即無限制地開始執業。
